Association between emergency medical services' response times, low socioeconomic status, and poorer outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest: the MEDIC multicenter retrospective cohort study for disparities in access to prehospital critical care in the Paris metropolitan area.

Background And Importance: Prolonged emergency medical services' response times (EMS-RT) are associated with poorer outcomes in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). The patient access time interval (PATI), from vehicle stop until contact with patient, may be increased in areas with low socioeconomic status (SES).

Objectives: The objective of this study is to identify predictors of prolonged EMS-RT intervals, and to evaluate associations with clinical outcomes in OHCAs occurring in the largest metropolitan area in France.

Settlement patterns and temporal successions of coral reef cryptic communities affect diversity assessments using autonomous reef monitoring structures (ARMS).

Autonomous Reef Monitoring Structures (ARMS) are used worldwide to assess cryptic diversity, especially on coral reefs. They were developed as standardised tools, yet conditions of deployment, such as immersion duration and/or deployment and retrieval seasons, vary among studies. Here we studied temporal and seasonal variability in coral reef cryptic communities sampled with 15 ARMS on a single coral reef slope site at Reunion Island, Southwest Indian Ocean.

Clinical performance of AED shock advisory system with integrated Analyze Whilst Compressing algorithm for analysis of the ECG rhythm during out-of-hospital cardiopulmonary resuscitation: A secondary analysis of the DEFI 2022 study.

Objective: This study involving automated external defibrillators (AEDs) in early treatment of refibrillation aims to evaluate the performance of a new shock advisory system (SAS) during chest compressions (CC) in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) patients.

Methods: This work focuses on AED SAS performance as a secondary outcome of DEFI 2022 clinical prospective study, which included first-analysis shockable OHCA patients. SAS employs the Analyze Whilst Compressing (AWC) algorithm to interact with both cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and shock advice by conditional operation of two-stage ECG analysis in presence or absence of chest compressions.

Analysis during chest compressions in out-of-hospital cardiac arrest patients, a cross/sectional study: The DEFI 2022 study.

Aims: During out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), an automatic external defibrillator (AED) analyzes the cardiac rhythm every two minutes; however, 80% of refibrillations occur within the first minute post-shock. We have implemented an algorithm for Analyzing cardiac rhythm While performing chest Compression (AWC). When AWC detects a shockable rhythm, it shortens the time between analyses to one minute.
